ARealDeadOne: Iron Maiden Vs. Judas Priest

Keyblade 03.14.13	70'sPriestisBetter
KILL 03.14.13	plz make mettalica vs megadeath next
ARealDeadOne 03.14.13	Everyone has their own opinion, only one I didn't consider was Rocka Rolla which would have been 21 for sure If I had done all the albums just for the title track.
Mike08 03.14.13	I like priest alot, but maiden has the comfortable win.
DominionMM1 03.14.13	arealdeadone was so much cooler when he went by bighans
laughingman22 03.14.13	This is the ultimate question! ........Iron Maiden....easily
KILL 03.14.13	sad wings>any maiden record but maiden
Funkenstein 03.14.13	70s priest > maiden maiden > 80s priest its that simple really
ViralOblivion 03.14.13	Overall I'd pick Maiden
Funkenstein 03.14.13	also rocka rolla > 2 just thought id throw that out there
DominionMM1 03.14.13	70s priest > maiden maiden > 80s priest its that simple really but what about painkiller?
DamnVanne 03.14.13	Maiden, easy.
Inferis 03.14.13	Maiden. Priest hasn't aged well.
Funkenstein 03.14.13	70s priest is like wine bro
ARealDeadOne 03.14.13	Dominion I'm a new user, was never known as anyone else. I agree with Maiden (naturally judging by my list and name) but I think some Priest has aged be very well, better than even certain Maiden songs like Run To The Hills. Hell Bent For Leather for one, 35 years old and still rocks. The Sentinel especially, and all of Painkiller. However, nothing beats 2 Minutes To Midnight, The Rine Of The Ancient Mariner, or Powerslave by Maiden for me though, except maybe Bruce's Number of the Beast single version of Remember Tomorrow.
tempest-- 03.14.13	This is tough. Judas Priest up until Screaming for Vengeance > Iron Maiden, but overall Maiden > Priest.
NightProwler 03.14.13	Definitely Maiden, no contest there. But Priest still rules hard m/
MoosechriS 03.14.13	Maiden ftw, but priest will always be gods of metal
JamieTwort 03.14.13	13 is my favourite album from either band but overall I'd have to go with Maiden.
qwe3 03.14.13	dude i ha
qwe3 03.14.13	hey

qwe3 03.14.13	hey
qwe3 03.14.13	you should do a stones vs beatles list
NightProwler 03.14.13	Lol ^ No please do KoRn vs. Linkin Park or something we haven't seen in a long time
Vakarian12 03.14.13	prefer Maiden.
NapalmCrusader 03.14.13	4 and 1 rapes everything here.
Titan 03.14.13	'Judas Priest helped create and greatly shaped an entire sub-genre of rock, and Maiden took it just as far if not further.' Should've read as: Judas Priest helped create and greatly shaped an entire sub-genre of rock, and Maiden perfected it.
NightProwler 03.14.13	Agreed
manosg 03.14.13	Maiden. Nevertheless, Sad Wings of Destiny deserves to be higher imo.
SIMBOLIC 03.15.13	Hallowed be thy name Game over
FearThyEvil 03.15.13	I'd have to go Maiden
cagedescending 03.15.13	Priest but i honestly don't listen to quite enough Maiden should fix
ChopSuey 03.15.13	Maiden
HorrorBusiness78 09.24.14	Maiden are far better songwriters, not even close IMO. I've never really been able to get into Priest other than a few songs here and there.
DikkoZinner 09.24.14	Iron Maiden
adr 09.24.14	Maiden
insanedrexl1 09.24.14	Maiden
JamieTwort 09.24.14	70's Priest > Maiden wins overall though.
betray 09.24.14	70's Priest > Maiden wins overall though. [2]
manosg 09.24.14	80s Maiden > 70s Priest
JamieTwort 09.24.14	Both rule (and are obviously the band's best eras respectively) but for me 70's Priest produced music that's better than anything Maiden have done. Sad Wings stands head and shoulders over any Maiden album.
NeroCorleone80 09.24.14	Sad Wings > Maiden agreed.
adr 09.24.14	not even best Priest, but ok
manosg 09.24.14	Without Priest there's probably no Maiden and Sad Wings is a classic but I'd take three Maidens over Sad Wings. Just personal preference obv.
betray 09.24.14	Really is best priest tho
NeroCorleone80 09.24.14	Yeah objectively Maiden are easily better as a whole, I just prefer Priest's riffs and Halford's vocals.
wwba 09.24.14	I think Maiden won because they made into the mainstream industry and became the second most mainstream metal band ever next to Metallica.
SIMBOLIC 09.24.14	painkiller over number wuuuuuuuuuuuut maiden is p much the rush of metal you can't beat that overall discog
Flugmorph 12.29.14	cant really get into iron maiden tbh its too cheesy for me. priest on the other hand is freakkin awesome sometimes
pedro70512 12.29.14	Priest's "best of" kills Maiden's, but Maiden was so much more consistent.
manosg 12.30.14	Nah, I can't say that Maiden are more cheesy, especially compared to 80s Priest.
Dunpeal 12.30.14	since you're taking requests can we get BOTDF vs. Brokencyde
TheMoonchild 12.30.14	I would have to respectfully disagree on the "Without Priest..." comment. Steve was more influenced by bands like Deep Purple and UFO at the time. In fact on the way back to London from the Maiden fan club trip to Luxembourg this past summer (Maiden's first ever gig in Lux and it kicked ass), one of the DVDs shown was UFO: Too Hot to Handle and not only did Steve make an appearance in a few interview bits, but I was taken aback at how similar some of the songs I was hearing were to the first four albums.
NightProwler 12.30.14	maiden is p much the rush of metal you can't beat that overall discog [2]
